One of the highlights of the weekend, this family fun, ATV ride-in/ride-out evening offers food vendors, a beer tent, and live music by the band Last Kid Picked. Streets will be closed to regular traffic.
Also on Friday, Burgess Biopower will sponsor an ATV torchlight parade. At 8:45 p.m., the paraders will start lining up and, at 9, the parade will begin north on Main Street in Berlin. A city curfew has been extended for this event, and riders have been asked to disperse and return to their lodgings at 10 p.m.
On Saturday, August 5, the mind-blowing motocross show of JBR Best Whip is coming to the Jericho Mountain ATV Jamboree. This high-octane, adrenaline-fueled event begins at noon. Featuring some of the most talented riders in the industry in one huge show, the JBR Best Whip practice starts at noon, followed by a 1 p.m. Freestyle Show and culminating in the JBR Best Whip performance at 2 p.m. There will be two back-flip riders, one X-games medalist rider, and a lineup of whip riders performing hair-raising stunts and outrageous tricks.
In addition, Screaming Eagle dirt bike rider Ronnie Mac will be on hand. He is a fan favorite, described as having a masked persona, strong charismatic personality, a naughty sense of humor, and a reckless riding style. His promotional materials pose the question, “Who is Ronnie Mac? That’s the burning question, right? There’s always speculation! Ronnie Mac may or may not be a real person, it’s more of a lifestyle! Ronnie Mac lives inside of all of us! Not only is he going to send it every time, but he’s a man of the people. Kind to children and smooth to the ladies. Men want to be him, women want to be with him, and kids want to grow into something like him.”
On Saturday evening, August 5, from 6 to 9 p.m. at Service Credit Union Heritage Park, the DIEZEL Band will be performing a wide variety of songs, ranging from heavy to pop, rock to country, and edgy to danceable. This event is sponsored by Northway Bank and is free to those with the Jericho ATV Jamboree wristband. Otherwise, it is $10 per person and $5 for children ages 10 and under.
